The appliance and its appliance main gas valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its equipment shutoff valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
Orifice Sizes—Sea Level to High Altitude
These fireplaces are tested and approved for installation at elevations of 0 - 4500 ft (0 - 1372 m) above sea level
using the standard burner orifice sizes (Table 5). For elevations above 4500 ft, contact your gas supplier or qualified
service technician.
Table 5 - Burner Orifice Sizes, Elevation 0 - 4500 ft ( 0 - 1372 m)
Deration
At elevations above 4500 ft, the amount of BTU fuel value delivered must be reduced by either:
• Using gas that has been derated by the gas company.
• Changing the burner orifice to a smaller size as regulated by the local authorities having jurisdiction and by the
(USA) National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1—latest edition or, in Canada, the CAN/CGA-B149.1 codes—
latest edition.
NOTE: Flame breadth, height and width will diminish 4% for every 1,000 ft of altitude.
IN CANADA—CAN/CGA-2.17-M91 (HIGH ALTITUDE):
THE CONVERSION SHALL BE CARRIED OUT BY A MANUFACTURER’S AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE,
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE MANUFACTURER, PROVINCIAL OR TERRITORIAL

NOTE: Before accessing the test ports, the fireplace must be OFF and COLD. Turn OFF the main gas supply before
connecting to the pressure taps.
Propane tanks are at pressures that will cause damage to valve components. Verify that the tanks have step down regulators
to reduce the pressure to safe levels.
Using a propane tank smaller than 100 lbs may create pressure loss and insufficient fuel delivery, which can cause sooting,
severe delayed ignition, or other malfunctions (see NPFA 58).
Any damage as a result of insufficient tank size or other improper installation is NOT covered under the limited warranty.

COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS REQUIREMENTS
These appliances are approved for installation in the US state of Massachusetts if the following additional
requirements are met:
• Install this appliance in accordance with Massachusetts Rules and Regulations 248 C.M.R. Sections 4.00
through 8.00.
• Installation and repair must be done by a plumber or gas fitter licensed in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
• The flexible gas line connector used shall not exceed 36 inches (92 centimeters) in length.
• The individual manual shut-off must be a T-handle type valve.
Massachusetts Horizontal Vent Requirements
In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, horizontal terminations installed less than seven (7) feet above the finished
grade must comply with the following additional requirements:
• A hard wired carbon monoxide detector with an alarm and battery back-up must be installed on the floor level
where the gas fireplace is installed. The carbon monoxide detector must comply with NFPA 720, be ANSI/UL
2034 listed and be ISA certified.
• A metal or plastic identification plate must be permanently mounted to the exterior of the building at a minimum height
of eight (8) feet above grade and be directly in line with the horizontal termination. The sign must read, in print size no
less than one-half (1/2) inch in size, GAS VENT DIRECTLY BELOW. KEEP CLEAR OF ALL OBSTRUCTIONS.
COLD CLIMATE INSULATION
For cold climate installations, seal all cracks around your fireplace with noncombustible material and wherever cold
air could enter the room. It is especially important to insulate outside chase cavity between studs and under floor on
which fireplace rests, if floor is above ground level. Gas line holes and other openings should be caulked or stuffed
with unfaced fiberglass insulation.
NOTE: Do not use loose, or blown-in insulation in the cavity surrounding the fireplace.
If the fireplace is being installed on a cement slab in cold climates, a sheet of plywood or other raised platform can
be placed underneath to prevent conduction of cold transferring to the fireplace and into the room. It also helps to
seal inside surfaces and tape for maximum air tightness and caulk firestops.

MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES
Fireplace And Vent Clearances
The fireplace is approved with zero clearance to combustible materials
on all sides (Table 8), with the following exception: The unit may not be
recessed (allowance made for mantel legs / side trim in Figure 5C, Page
16. When the unit is installed with one side flush with a wall, the wall on
the other side of the unit must not extend beyond the front edge of the
unit (Figure 5C, Page 16).
The fireplace must be mounted on a fully supported base extending
the full width and depth of the unit. The fireplace may be located on
or near conventional construction materials. However, if installed on
combustible materials, such as carpeting, vinyl tile or other combustible
material other than wood flooring, the appliance shall be installed on a
metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the appliance.

*** 6” (153 mm) if optional facade is used.
Hearth Extension
A hearth extension is not required with this fireplace. If a hearth extension is used, do not block the screen barrier assembly from being
installed or removed. Any hearth extension used is for appearance only and does not have to conform to standard hearth extension
installation requirements.
Shelf Height
To provide for the lowest possible shelf surface, the venting attached to the top vent should be routed in a way to minimize obstructions to
the space above the fireplace. Do not insulate the space between the fireplace and the area above it (Table 9). The minimum height from
the base of the fireplace to the underside of combustible materials used to construct a utility shelf in this fashion is shown in Table 9.

Wall Finishes / Surrounds / Mantels
NOTE: Combustible wall finish materials and/or surround materials must not be allowed to encroach the area
defined by the fireplace front face (black sheet metal). Non-Combustible material up to 6 inches in depth, such as
surrounds may be positioned in front of or overlapping the fireplace face.
Non-Combustible materials, such as surrounds and other fireplace trim, may be installed on the fireplace face, but they
must not cover any portion of the removable glass panel or impede the removal or installation of screen barrier assembly.
Vertical installation clearances to combustible mantels vary according to the depth of the mantel (Figures 5 and
5A). Mantels constructed of Non-Combustible materials may be installed at any height above the fireplace opening.
However, do not allow anything to hang below the fireplace hood.
Minimum clearance requirements include any projections such as shelves, window sills, mantels, etc. above the
fireplace.
NOTE: To avoid heat-related finish damage, we recommend the use of high temperature paint (rated 175° F or higher) on
the underside of the mantel.
